Dinner at Rogues | @rogues_ldn.

Not the result we were looking for, is the kindest way to put it.

The experience in JFK with stops at the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse and the Capital One Lounge in JFK ahead of Flight VS10 to LHR.

A wonderful springtime eating and drinking my way through NYC.

Go New York Go New York Go! 🎶

I hate the Brooklyn Half. Also? I love the Brooklyn Half. This was my 13th consecutive time running this one so I guess I love it even if I hate the long stretch of Ocean Parkway.

Wanted to give a friend’s son a taste of bougie dining, but accessible. We took him to ⭐️ Sixty Three Clinton | @63_clinton where we had a really good meal. Mission accomplished and we had a wonderful conversation with @raymondetrinh (thx, Raymond) about kitchen life.

Dinner at Kelang | @kelangnyc, where we ate as much as we could before our stomachs exploded.

Lunch at Sushi By Bou | @sushibybou_, where the pieces just kept on coming.

It snowed a lot these last few months in New York City but you’d hardly know from this set of photos from this past winter.

A long, cold winter eating and drinking my way through NYC.

No upgrades to First Class on these flights (will have to make do with Comfort+, the horror) but it wouldn’t have made a difference for lounge access anyway as MEX is basically considered domestic for that purpose. No matter, I finally got to have a (mini) bagel from Ess-a-bagel at the Capital One Lounge in JFK on the way out and got to experience a la carte dining at the American Express Centurion Lounge in MEX.

If you asked for my thoughts on my stay at the Hilton Mexico City Reforma | @hiltonmexicocityreforma based only on the first two nights, my response would have been “mid”.

Mexico City, as seen on a lot of walks around town.

Spent the final morning in Mexico City exploring the Secretaría De Educación Pública (Edificio Anexo) | @gobmexico - in particular, the murals painted by Diego Rivera.

Mexico City, as seen through its tacos.

A totally unexpected, unplanned, fortuitous visit to Handshake Speakeasy | @handshake_bar, 50 Best’s No.1 North America's 50 Best Bars 2025 and No.1 The World's 50 Best Bars 2024 (it dropped to second in 2025). This was a fantastic experience.

A wonderful long weekend eating and drinking my way through Mexico City.
